Morning Folks!

Leanne and Wes are at the Basketball Comp, so here's a task for you. Construct a series of real life maths questions ( like what Wes asks in class) using x, + and - fractions.

Use a fresh piece of A4 paper, and remember to show the answer and the working out on the back, and don't forget your name!! You have 1 hour!!!

Leanne drove five and three quarter kilometres and stopped to buy some lunch. She then stopped another three and 1/3 kilometres to pick up her dog from the vet. How far did she drive altogether?

In a game of basketball, Ricky gets 43 out of his 50 shots, Vudhun takes 20 shots and gets 17. Who is the better shot?

What fraction did they get?

What percentage is that?

Write your own fraction scenario with at least 3 questions and make them very tricky. We will use these questions in class.
